All this little app offers is a personal micro site that lists all your social network profiles. Basically share one link for all your different profiles. And yes, it includes DevRant of course. :)

There's also an iframe template for easy integration into other web apps and for the devs there's a super simple REST GET endpoint for inclusion of the data in your own apps.

The whole thing is on GitHub and I'd be more than happy for any kind of contribution. I'm looking forward to adding features like more personalization, optimizing stuff and fixing things. Also any suggestions on services you'd like see. Pretty much anything that involves a public profile goes.

I know this isn't exactly world changing, but it's just a thing I wanted to do for some time now, getting my own little app out there.

"The Harmonic Algorithm, written in Haskell and R, generates musical domain specific data inside user defined constraints then filters it down and deterministically ranks it using a tailored Markov Chain model trained on ingested musical data. This presents a unique tool in the hands of the composer or performer which can be used as a writing aid, analysis device, for instrumental study or even in live performance."

So, I’m here to tell you good news – a great developer, @not-a-muggle, decided to join me, and now we made a team!

I also made some conversations and acquired “chaaat” name from another team on Heroku, so now we have consistent domain name on both Heroku and GitHub Pages.

We have Trello board with very well described tasks almost anyone can do. We also have Slack to have both business and free conversations.

If you’re seeking a place to contribute and gain some NodeJS / React / PWA / WebRTC experience with detailed code review from experienced developer, just mention me here or shoot me an email on hello@miloslav.website. Provide your email so I’ll be able to contact you.

Our main goals are:
1. Have fun and some experience
2. Make it to Chrome Experiments mention

If you live in the EU and care about privacy, security and/or open source you might want to check it out.

To sum it up: The idea is to have all software written for and bought by public authorities, governments and such published under open source licenses to enable every citizen to verify the integrity of that software (and give all the other advantages of FOSS).

Ok, now there is quite big movement from GitHub to GitLab (https://bit.ly/2xJWGDs). It's actually so big (over 250k https://twitter.com/gitlabstatus/...) that GitLab didn't expect and there is currently some problems with "Import tool". I think at least 95% of those projects are open source, and 2-3 weeks until bigger projects / closed source projects starts to move (if they move). I don't dare to say "open source is dead in GitHub" but if there is any believing in numbers there is some heavy decline now, and more decline in upcoming weeks when bigger projects move.
Basically GitHub has now lost quite many people who contributes to open source even if projects don't move (true, some people will continue use Github along GitLab and continues contribute GitHub open source projects) and their development rate will slow down, what can current "market" mean slow "death", or they need to find new active members to contribute code.

I'm more worried about open source than GitHub, and effect to open source can't be seen in right away (maybe year or two forward). MS has now quite lot power to decide what direction open source will move. Many of those who has moved / will move away from GitHub, and I believe some who moved away had subscription to GitHub, so there will be some decline in income too.

Now to biggest thing to see how MS reacts to it, do they get enough money from other sources they link to GitHub (Visual Studio, Azure and so on), or will decline be so big that they need to start monetize GitHub even more what then most likely increase decline open source in GitHub.

I personally originally joined GitHub just because there was some projects what I was interested (most of them are now dead long before), and I used to till yesterday have active subscription to GitHub. I don't hate or love GitHub or anything, it's service to me and I don't feel like "I have to be loyal". But on personal level I hate MS, and that's why I move away.

It’s basically an mturk model that pays out etherium to python coders.

Im skeptical about

1. Cryptocurrency payment for work, I don’t know enough about crypto to trust it’s use as payment?

2. Payment for open-source work: on one hand, i support workers getting paid for their work, BUT (imo) the coolest part of open source is that it’s one of the few environments where people work for the works sake, not for $$.

I had a bigger list but it left my brain as I was typing, so what do y’all think?

Seriously, what the actual fuck is this, and why am I only hearing about it now? This is full of FUD bullshit. Taxpayer money is taxpayer code, but that doesn't matter, I guess. What matters is at the end of the day these fuckers get their fill of insane amount of money while shoving an outdated and verbose language down the throats of universities, with proprietary software attatched, masturbating to watching open source software go unmaintained, and making sure everyone follows their command. Fuck these guys, fuck you so fucking much.

Public money, public code. Corporations should not have any proprietary software NEAR the White House.

I am looking for people looking for open source contribution. For the project.

I am making an Typescript based open source library for Basic Data Structures like Trees, Lists etc. Lodash for Data structures. So that I can be used in projects. I am making it in Typescript. If you are interested in learning and coding data structures, Typescript. Then hop on. Send a PR or Add Issues.

It's a question regarding taking ownership of a project with a apache 2 license. I've pretty much created the back-end part of this back end as a service. Some other colleagues created the Java, ios and js clients, so it's not entirely made by me.
